John Krasinski is practically begging to get into the Marvel universe

John Krasinski seems to be eyeing a spot in “Fantastic Four.”

It’s immediately obvious that John Krasinski is a good fit for the Marvel universe.

His work in comedy (“The Office”), thriller/action (“Jack Ryan”) and thriller/horror (“Quiet Place”) make for an impressive body of work, and one that would fit nicely into what Marvel seems to do so well: putting the universe at stake without sacrificing jocularity.

So it should come as little surprise that Krasinski made an appeal to the MCU overlords in an attempt to get him in on the action-packed universe. Krasinski seems to be eyeing a spot in the reboot of “Fantastic Four” as Reed Richards (or the elastic Mister Fantastic).

“You’re like, ‘Do you have any interest in not shattering people’s dreams?'” Krasinski told TotalFilm.com in a recent interview. “I would love to be in the Marvel universe. I love those movies because they’re fun, but I also think they’re really well done. And certainly a lot of my friends are in those movies. I have no idea what [Marvel] are thinking. But if they are considering me for Mr. Fantastic, continue to consider me because I would love it.”

Would he have any interest in directing one?

“Oh man, directing one of those things? I don’t think I’m your guy,” he said. “But if I was to act in one? I’d have so much fun.”

Perhaps Krasinski is too good of a fit: another handsome, jacked, white man. And perhaps Marvel needs to stray away from his type as they get into Phase 5. Krasinski was in the mix to earn a role as Captain America, which ultimately went to Chris Evans. Krasinski even admitted he was glad to see Evans get the role, because it allowed Krasinski to work on his abilities as a writer and director. But perhaps he’s still got some FOMO, because he’s practically begging to get into the MCU.
